Label printer A8+

1 Large graphic display
White backlight provides good readability.

2 Ribbon holder
The three-part tightening axles enable the ribbon to be quickly and easily exchanged.

3 Simple adjustment
The print head is pressed on by three plungers: One is fixed at the inner side, another is set in centered position and the third is set at the outer label margin.

4 Periphery connection
Additional modules are quick and easy to connect. All peripheral devices are plugged to the printer with the help of two pins and are fixed with a screw.

5 Rugged metal chassis
made of cast aluminum. Basis to assemble all the units

6 Roll holder
picking up core diameters of at least 38 mm (76 mm adapters for a better label winding are included in the delivery). The spring-mounted margin stop with a screw cap enables constant tension during material feed and therefore improves the accuracy of the imprint.
